POWER STATEMENT

Phantom

The signature Rolls-Royce, the essence of the marque. With its powerful stance, iconic proportions and state-of-the-art technology, Phantom is a timeless interpretation of the modern luxury motor car. The Spirit of Ecstasy leads the way – with a sense of purpose and presence.

Born to be Bespoke

When you commission your own Phantom, you choose what statement to make. Create a magical star-filled night sky with 800 individual fibre optic lights hand-fitted into the roof lining. Look sharp with pinstripe tyres and watch holders in the rear door panniers. Whatever personality you wish to project, our Bespoke team can realise it for you.

Anything is possible when it comes to commissioning your Phantom. For the Bespoke Phantom Metropolitan Collection, we took inspiration from the city. Inside, intricate marquetry designs and embroidery depict abstract skyscrapers from an elevated view. There is also a 24-location rotating time zone bezel clock – the first ever used in a motor car.

Bespoke is about more than a distinctive design. It’s about bringing your unique vision to life. From the finest detailing to the boldest statement, our Bespoke team will work with you to make your desired Phantom a reality.

You have complete freedom on the colour palette of the exterior and interior. Choose from our archived 44,000 hues. Or, if you prefer, find colour inspiration elsewhere and we’ll have our specialists match it. Crests, initials or insignia can be embroidered on to the seat headrest, inlaid into the veneer and even hand-painted onto the exterior. And for the ultimate finishing touch, add a pair of single or double coachlines, which you can extend to feature on the self-righting wheel centre caps. Each five-metre line takes one of our specialists a steady hand and three hours to paint.

Hand-built by perfectionists

Sixty pairs of highly skilled hands. That’s the level of artisanship that goes into building every Phantom at the Home of Rolls-Royce. Each detail matters – the five coats of paint on the bodyshell, the bookmatched veneers and the hand-stitched leatherwork. Perfection is our benchmark.

It takes seven days and five coats of paint and high-gloss clear lacquer to create a flawless, mirror-like finish on a Rolls-Royce motor car. Then the bodyshell is meticulously polished by hand for over five hours. Attention to detail – it’s what we’re famed for.

Meanwhile, the wood craftspeople spend up to a month shaping, sanding, lacquering and hand-polishing up to 42 separate wood parts that will furnish the interior. In Phantom, burr veneers are bookmatched by eye to create a symmetrical mirror image of the grain through the centre of the dashboard. Aligning the edges is an intricate process: the skill lies in being able to visualise the complete symmetry of the whole piece.

Inside the Leathershop, the upholstery for the interior gradually takes shape. The leather specialists use a traditional tool called a fishbone to fashion the leather by hand. Up to 450 individual pieces are cut, hand-stitched and fitted in a Phantom by the most talented of craftspeople. When craftsmanship looks that good, it deserves a signature – that’s why the leather is personally signed by our artisans.

Unrivalled status

It’s the rare sense of scale that defines Phantom and provides such a commanding presence. The wheel proportions and features such as the rear coach doors, Pantheon grille and Spirit of Ecstasy, are all paramount to the Phantom DNA.

The classic 2:1 proportions of the wheel-to-body height ratio are immediately apparent. Creating a powerful stance that is heightened by the long wheelbase and bonnet, short front overhangs and deep C-pillars. The elevated body and rear coach doors make entry and exit effortlessly graceful.

The curve of the roofline and sweep of the waftability line give the impression of light acceleration even at a standstill. And the Spirit of Ecstasy, which can be requested in stainless steel, solid silver, gold-plate or uplit, gracefully adorns every bonnet and boldly announces your arrival. Phantom is a magnet for attention.

A cosseting interior

As you open Phantom’s rear coach doors, you’re welcomed into an interior that boasts supreme craftsmanship: the feel and scent of soft leather upholstery, and the beauty of the bookmatched veneer that runs throughout the interior. It’s the epitome of contemporary luxury and uncompromising skill.

Deep lambswool rugs underfoot, large cocooning C-pillars, umbrellas cleverly concealed in each rear door, three-flute heated seats and a virtually flat floor in the rear compartment: Phantom is the ultimate in comfort. Sit back and relax.

The hand-stitched leatherwork takes over two weeks to complete, with nine hides required for each interior. Pre-shrunk and drum-dyed so the colour permeates right through, the leather won’t squeak or crack.

Each set of veneers comes from a single tree: walnut, elm, malabar or wenge. Creating a seamless flow of flawless wood from fascia to rear compartment. Onlays or inlays to the veneer add discreet but distinctive touches – featuring anything from your own initials to a unique design.

Just as Phantom’s presence is quietly authoritative, the delivery of power from the direct-injection V12 engine is equally commanding. At 70mph, more than 90% of the power is available in reserve, making acceleration so smooth it feels like you’re in an infinite first gear.

Every journey is made more enjoyable with the infotainment system. In the rear, you can watch TV or a DVD on two high-quality 12” screens that fold flat into the backs of the front seats. The front monitor gives you a clear view whether you’re using the hard drive-based navigation system or watching a DVD while stationary. An easy-to-use central console gives you a dynamic connection to the road and makes driving an effortless pleasure.
